This hazardous weather outlook is for eastern Utah and western
Colorado.
.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight
Dry and very warm conditions will occur today with some storms
possible over the eastern Uinta mountains this afternoon. Gusty
outflow winds and lightning will be the primary threats with these
storms over northeast Utah. Otherwise, expect mostly sunny skies
to prevail.
.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Friday through Wednesday
Dry conditions with very warm to hot temperatures will continue
through Saturday. Winds will increase on Saturday ahead of an
approaching storm system, leading to potential for critical fire
weather conditions for much of western Colorado. The chance for
precipitation will slowly increase late weekend into early next
week as this storm system affects the area, with isolated storms
favoring higher terrain at this time.
.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
Spotter activation will not be needed.
